The catalytic convert... it's probably on top of the mesh...
 
I would have thought it would be in the turbo or the piping.  Although at the speeds these things turn, it could be embedded in the metal housing.  Also check the intercooler.

Am I thinking of the wrong side of the turbine?
 
The nut that holds the compressor wheel on the shaft? That sounds like a problem..

I don't think it could make it past.
The fins inside the intercooler are pretty tight.

Here's a video I posted awhile back draining the intercooler,
You can see the fins.
